The camp classic drama that catapolted De Carlo into stardom. During the Austrian-Prussian war, Anna Marie (De Carlo) is a dancer who is forced to flee her country after she is accused of being a spy. She ends up in a lawless western town in Arizona, where she uses her charms and dancing skills to transform herself into "Salome" during her dance routines. She makes such an impact on the town, eventually taming it, that they re-name the town "Salome, Where She Danced." Later on, she moves to San Francisco, where she meets a wealthy Russian man, seduces him, and has him build her her own opera house to perform in. Anna Marie spends her life manipulating one man after another to get what she wants, and they fall fall for her.

Camp Classic Supreme
This is the queen of camp classics: Yvonne in her very first starring role looking exotic, breathtakingly beautiful, and showcasing many of her talents. The plot is ludicrous, loosely, very loosely based on the life of notorious dancer Lola Montez, the story carries one from Vienna to San Francisco with many a bump (and grind) along the way. Yvonne plays Anna Marie, a ballerina in the Royal Ballet of Austria, who is secretly in love with a nobleman. He is killed in war, she is duped into becoming a spy and has to flee the country -- so naturally, she turns up on a stagecoach in Arizona. Stranded, she is forced to do her most exotic dance: Salome and the Dance of the Seven Veils. Catching the eye of a passing bandit, she is kidnapped and dragged to the desert where she changes his Confederate heart by singing O Tannenbaum in German. On to San Francisco, where she is preparing for her debut with the San Francisco Ballet, sings an aria or two long the way, and hides out on a boat disguised as a Chinese princess. (I told you the plot was ludicrous) But all is well and she has a happy ending, heading off in a runaway stagecoach with her reformed Confederate bandit.

salome,where she danced
this is a camp classic - it's a quite a lavish production.
The print is not great, as Universal seems to have lost the rights.Anyway it's the best one I have seen.
This movie which was Yvonne DeCarlo's first starring
role, made her a star.She sings one song - the other is dubbed. It really is worth watching.

Yvonne de Carlo
Salome Where She Danced
If you're a Yvonne de Carlo-Fan, the movie is all right and it's worth your money and the time to watch it. If not forget it.
